Silver Spring’s Aaron Lichtig’s ‘Jeopardy!’ run will continue Friday after the executive’s win on Thursday night.
Competing against Nancy Rohlen, of Chicago, and returning champion Rachel Paternomahler, of Playa Del Rey, California, Lichtig racked up $14,401 in winnings and secured his spot as the returning champion for Friday’s show.
Lichtig will compete against Christopher Records, a nonprofit consultant from Los Angeles, and Steven Oppenheim, a supply chain analyst from Shaker Heights, Ohio. The show will air at 7:30 p.m. on WJLA, Channel 7, in Washington.
Lichtig is the vice president of growth marketing for a startup custom manufacturing company in Bethesda, Xometry.
The game show’s episodes are recorded in advance and contestants are prohibited from revealing the outcome.
Lichtig has called his experience “truly surreal.”
